Anyone else NOT do kick counts?

Question

Am I the only one who really doesn’t do kick counts? Like I feel baby moving throughout the day, she has her active time where I KNOW it has to be more than 10 movements but I don’t pay attention to the number per say- anyone else?

Answer

My doctor told me kick counts are outdated. She’d prefer that I pay attention to baby’s schedule especially since there are certain times a day that baby will not move no matter what I do

Answer

No I don’t do them either and my doctor never told me to anyway.

Answer

My Dr told me to do them with my first pregnancy (gave birth in Jan 2018) and I'm 38weeks with my second and he has told me not to worry about doing it. Just said as long as I feel her moving throughout the day that's enough. 
She's so active though I don't feel a need to do them

Answer

My doctor actually told me not to. She said pay attention to baby's typical patterns and if anything is out of the ordinary then call.

Answer

I never did, I just knew what was and wasn’t normal for my baby

Answer

I never did them unless I felt like I hadn’t felt baby move a lot.

Answer

My doctor advised me to. I had an anterior placenta and even at the end of my pregnancy barely felt him.

Answer

My midwife just told me to take note if my baby movements changed or if I didn't have any movement for a couple of hours then just take a cold or sugary drink and see if she moves again a bit more. You know the 'normal' for your baby, the kick counts are to make ladies aware of their babies movements I think. But sometimes it helps ladies who are worried about movement to keep track of what's the norm when baby first starts to move.

Answer

Never did with either my son or my daughter

Answer

I never did.
